I have a plumbers burner that they use to melt molten tin/lead. It puts off about ten quadrillion BTU's. Boils a keg of water in about ten minutes. You've gotta watch it with oil though, it can scorch.

I developed this method because I brewed beer on my electric stove at home. The BTU output is so poor from an electric stove I ruined the elements and blistered the enamel on the stove.

When real men do real cooking, they need the right tools for the job. I have made a motorized terret griddle for our fly in breakfasts. It is an eight foot diameter stainless steel griddle which is chain driven on a gear reduction motor. We can pump out 30 pancakes per minute. It used to be part of a dryer in a paper mill.

We enjoy espresso rather than coffee. I've been tinkering with "manly" engineered espresso brewing methods which can produce far greater volumes of espresso other than those sissy little cups and pots. I am talking like a gallon per shot. Granted, the vessel might be more dangerous than a bomb, but in manly cooking tactics these are the risks you have to take.
